On our way to the Okies

Its 8pm and this morning feels so far away when we think back to what we have done so I will just name a few highlights as feeling very tired today.....I drove the car through Route 66 which was brilliant, even though Daniel was a little scared, I saw the BIG whale (see picture) - the whole place was magical as in the middle of the highway was a BIG BLUE WHALE.........after a long journey we arrived in Oklahoma City - I have too admit its not one of my favourite places but they can’t all be like the last 3 places.......before I go there we went past places called Kellyville and Chelsea Town!!! (just for you Dad)...K xx


When we look back at this point of the day of all the things we’ve doen we still can’t quite believe that it’s all the same day. Chicago and Illinois feel like about 3 weeks ago already!!! The highlight for me today was Totem Pole Park. A weird and wonderful place just off Route 66 in a place called Foyil. It contains the ‘Worlds Largest Concrete Totem Pole’, scultured by Ed Galloway - who worked day and night for 11 years to complete it........and before I go we have seen an interesting array of Road Kill so far...... previous favourites on what i’ll now be calling RKW [Road Kill Watch] included Racoon, Possum and Squirrel were today surpassed by Deer [blimey it was big!!!!] and Tortoise - Yes Tortoise!!! poor thing probably spent ages crossing the road only to be mown down as he got close to the edge...... one race the Hare will win! d.
